Thanks Dumitru, I didn't noticed that the patch was applied while I was typing my message :D
Overall I think it's fine if it stays as it was proposed by Ales. I just wanted to raise a very fringe concern that perhaps using two separate UDP servers could mask some underlying issue and if there's a way to consistently reproduce failures of this test, I'd be happy to take a look at it.
